I'm having a horrible paradox when it comes to avatars on this forum. I've never had this issue with any other forum, just ESForces.
I've found that when uploading an avatar, even if the image is larger than 100X100 pixels and has a file-size of about 50 kilobytes (well above the limit of 10K) the image will upload, but well... here's an example:
Okay, this is the image originally used for my avatar, the one I have now.
Notice this is well above the file-size quota, and larger than 100X100. Somehow the forum accepted this and you can see how the forum dulled the colors horribly in my avatar.
Now, I have tried reducing both file size, and image size and thought I can get to the 100X100 limit, I cannot in any way get reduce a file size to 10K.
Personally, I don't see what's going on. The smaller files I try to use are refused by the forum, and unless image anti-aliasing is a factor, I don't see why one 100X100 image would be any larger or smaller in file size than another. After all, pixel data is always the same size depending on pixel density...isn't it?
Could anyone help me? I know that most everyone her has great vivid avatars, but I have trouble with even the simplest image...
